  • What is this plant?

    Ive found a few of the following growing in a corner in my allotment, they look a little like peas.

    Anyone know what they are?

    Cheers

    They look like sweet peas to me. Plus some bramble and some sticky weed and clover and a strange plant that looks like a plastic bag.

      Yes, thats the uncultivated weed corner of the allotment, that will be getting sorted very soon, there was some bind weed their earlier too.

      So you think sweet peas? Hmm I wander where they came from, dont remember them from last year (first year on the allotment).

      Thanks for the reply.

        Don't mention bindweed - I already have nightmares about it! I am forever digging the plant up with little effect. I grow organically and nothing seems to halt the progress of this plant. Maybe others have got ideas?

          I loathe the stuff with a passion, I have it in 2 areas of the allotment and its a nightmare to shift.

            I have had sweet pes coming up 3 years on the trot in the front garden. I've given in now and plant them there each year to take advantage of the free ones! They are hardy things.
            Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

              Maybe an 'everlasting' sweet pea (don't have the scent but very pretty)

                  Hi

                  I've removed your photo as it was huge.

                  Hopefully you got your answer now anyway.

                    I have a perennial sweet pea in my hedge, so it could be one of them (didn't see photo). The flowers are a pretty purple but no variation in colour. Have tried growing more from seed but never managed one yet.
